What is the water production capacity of Jakarta's PAM?

Based on data from Jakarta's Central Statistics Agency (BPS DKI), the drinking water production capacity of Jakarta's Water Company (PAM) in 2015 reached 560.38 million cubic meters. This figure represents a 6.46 percent increase from the previous year's 526.39 million cubic meters. The largest supply of clean water came from the Buaran installation, reaching 171 million cubic meters.

Jakarta's raw water supply still heavily relies on the Jatiluhur Reservoir, accounting for 81 percent. Fifteen percent comes from the Tangerang Regional Water Company (Perusahaan Daerah Air Minum Tangerang), and the remainder originates from rivers flowing through the capital city. Currently, only 60 percent of households, out of Jakarta's 10 million residents, have access to clean water. Despite the presence of 13 rivers flowing through the city, Jakarta still faces a water shortage. High levels of ammonia and other toxic substances necessitate more expensive water sterilization from these rivers.

The raw water requirement for Jakarta's 10 million residents is 26,000 liters per second. However, only 17,000 liters per second are currently available, resulting in a shortfall of approximately 9,000 liters per second.
